Korsak arrived at Jane's house, as he was getting out of his car, he heard a gun shot. He covered himself with the still open car door. He heard someone behind him, he spun around with his gun drawn, not knowing what to expect, but ready to fire if need be. He lowered his gun once he saw it was Maura and Frost. He was surprised he hadn't heard another car pull up. He looked at the road and saw Frost's car parked about three houses up. Korsak throw his arm's around Maura once he knew Maura had no intention of stopping there. She needed to get to Jane and Jason. "I can't let you go in there yet, Doc. It's not cleared."
Maura stopped when she felt hands wrap around her and pull he back. She heard Korsak telling her she couldn't go in yet. But she wasn't really paying any attention to him. "That's my best friend in there, I'm going in." She tried to pull away from him, but he was stronger than she was. Still being held firmly in place, she tried a different tactic. "Korsak, you and Frost go in, I'll stay behind you. But I can't not go in. There are shots being fired, I might be able to help until the paramedics get here." Korsak nodded, let go of Maura and told her, "Fine. But, Maura you really need to stay behind us, okay?" Maura nodded slightly, knowing the minute she saw Jane and Jason, she would run to them, like her life depended on it.
As they got to the front door, they heard another shot. Frost tried opening the door but it was locked. "Shit," he mumbled, then added, "we have to kick it in." Maura was rummaging through her bag to try and find her keys, "No, we don't." She whispered. "Jane gave me a copy of her." Maura pushed past both Korsak and Frost to get to the door. She turned the key and pushed the door open. She was prepared to let Korsak and Frost go in first...well that was until Maura's eyes fell on Jason lying on the floor, looking straight at them. "Jason..." Maura shouted, running towards him. He didn't move. Maura knew as soon as she saw the dead look in his eyes that he was gone, but she needed to be sure. She fell down at the side of him and pressed her fingers into his neck to check for a pulse. "Jason...sweetheart, please open your eyes. Please." She started crying, looking up at Korsak and Frost. "He's dead, he's..." She was cut off at the sound of a gun firing.
Frost or Korsak couldn't hold her back this time, as she sprang up and shot towards the living room. She stopped dead in her tracks as she saw Robert on the settee with a bullet hole through his temple, a gun had fell out of his hand and was laid on the floor. It was clear that he had shot himself. She couldn't contain her anger any more. "What the hell did you do to them?" She screamed at Robert's lifeless body. She saw Korsak go over to Robert to check his pulse. "He's dead." Maura turned away, she couldn't look at this monster any more. She needed to find Jane. She left Frost and Korsak in the room with Robert's body and headed in the direction of the adjourning dining room and kitchen. "Oh god...Jane..." Maura half whispered half shouted when she saw Jane leaning against a cupboard door in the kitchen, blood dripping from her best friend's head wound, and her hand holding a towel against her stomach, already covered in blood.
Maura's leg gave way as she got to Jane, she fell to her knees, not paying any attention to the pain as her knees hit a cool granite flooring. "Oh god, Jane...What the hell did he do to you?" She had noticed her friend was still breathing when she first found her seeing the rise and fall of Jane's chest. Maura quickly went into doctor mode as she found fresh towels in the cupboard next to Jane, she gently took the one out of Jane's hand, putting a clean one there to replace it. She turned to find Korsak and Frost looking in their direction, not sure if they were looking at what Maura was doing, or if they were trying to determine whether or not Jane was still alive. "She's got a weak pulse, where the hell is that damn ambulance?" She noticed her voice had risen at the last part. "Should be here in a few minutes." Korsak told her. "She's passed out. Come and hold this in place. Put pressure on it. I need to check her head wound." Korsak walked over and placed his hands on the towel. Maura gently moved Jane's head to the side to get a proper look at the gash in her cheek. "It was cursed by his wedding ring. It doesn't need stitching." Maura was talking more to herself than anyone else. "The one above your eye though, Jane. I'm afraid that will need stitching."
The paramedics after a few minutes later. "Jane, listen to me... You're going to be okay. We'll get you to the hospital and I'll make sure you get the best doctor in Boston looking after you. Okay?" Maura told her, never letting her hand go as the paramedics worked around her. "Jane... Don't you dare leave me." Maura whispered in her ear. "Ma'am, you have to let go of her hand now, she's stable enough to move." Maura looked up at the paramedic who spoke to her. She didn't like him. He seemed inexperienced. "I'm not letting go. I'm going with her." She stood up as she spoke still not letting go of Jane's hand. "Ma'am, I'm afraid you can't come in the ambulance with her, if you're not family. You have already said you're just her friend. I'm sorry, Ma'am. It's the..." He didn't get a chance to finish before Maura's anger came bubbling out. "Look..." She stopped trying to find the right words. "I'm chief medical examiner, Dr Maura Isles. You may have heard about me?" She cut him off before he could even get a word out. "I will have you job by the end off the day." She cut off again not knowing how to finish the sentence. "I mean it, you will be jobless if I ever hear you say it's against the rules to me again. Okay? I don't really care about rules right at this moment. And I must admit that you..." She couldn't believe she was going to say this, but she couldn't seem to stop herself. "...you...you are the most annoying human being I've ever fucking met. I'm tempted not to take you're job just for that."
Both Korsak and Frost gasped at what had just come out of Maura's mouth. They knew she could be tough when she needed to be, but threatening to get the paramedic fired well... that was something Jane or one of them would do. Not Maura. Still it seemed to scare the paramedic, as they saw him turn to them both for support. "She's means it man. Let her travel with Jane. Or you will be out of a job before you can even get back to the hospital." Korsak said, whilst winking at Maura. "Fine, let's go." The paramedic whispered, looking like a wounded animal. "Thanks." Maura mumbled to Korsak. "Hey, no problem Doc, maybe a little bit off us is rubbing of off you after all. We will be by the hospital soon."
